Sampling of surface seawater using a Niskin bottle.
IAEA experts visited Japan from 8 to 14 September 2014 and -- together with staff from NRA and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs -- collected water samples from the sea at five locations near TEPCO's Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station,
The water samples were shared both between the IAEA Environmental Laboratories and the Japanese Laboratories to e=be analyzed independently.

Photo by Doug O'Neil. In Hobart yesterday evening, 40 Tasmanian community members gathered in solidarity with the people of Broome who oppose the proposed gas hub at James Price Point in far north Western Australia.
"We are joining a national day of action alongside people in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney, to support the people of Broome in their fight to protect one of the most spectacular places in the world" said Jenny Weber of the Huon Valley Environment Centre.
The gathering was coordinated by Huon Valley Environment Centre and The Last Stand. 40 people held a candle light vigil while films from the protests about the proposed gas hub were projected on to a wall at Pier 1 at Macquarie Wharf in Salamanca.
"Tonight, the people of southern Tasmania are standing strong in spirit with this inspiring community in the far north west of the country. We are demonstrating our absolute support for these outstanding citizens who are taking a stand for the Kimberley, one of our most ecologically and spiritually significant landscapes" said Ula Majewski of The Last Stand.
More than 140 police officers have been flown to Broome to assist the company Woodside Petroleum's controversial $40 billion James Price Point gas hub, in resuming work.
The police are shepherding through Woodside machinery to the proposed gas hub site and a large contingent of riot police arrived.
"We are told stories about James Price Point by the people who are standing up to defend it. It is a place where there are globally significant dinosaur track-sites, humpback whales feeding and calving, greater bilbies breeding, an ancient Aboriginal song cycle that is shared with people from all over the world in an annual walk called the Lurujarri trail. It is an absolute disgrace that Woodside wants to destroy this magical place with an industrial gas," concluded Jenny Weber.

Premier John Horgan stepped outside to catch a glimpse of the solar eclipse. Hundreds of people gathered around the legislative lawns and the Royal BC Museum to view this once in a lifetime experience.
The Soviet development model for Central Asia was based on building large-scale irrigation schemes enabling the region to become a major cotton producer and expanding the mining and processing industry. Industrial operations in the region paid little attention to the environment and public health, resulting in the accumulation of pollutants in the local environment. Today, not only active industrial facilities constitute a threat to environment, and often to security as well, so does the legacy of past operators.

Change in the initial species richness in 2005 relative to 2001-2005 average (high-range climate change scenario). Studies predict species invasion will be profound in the Arctic and Southern Oceans. Among others these changes could result in a significant turnover of species of more than 60% of present biodiversity. This has the potential to disrupt a range of marine ecosystem services including food provisioning.

For a better environment in the year 2023, I made a small initiative by planting 5 saplings given to me by my friend who is a Forest Officer in the Butterfly Park in Trichy and I motivated the villagers to plant more “ Banyan trees “ so that the coming generations will breathe fresh air and will be benefitted very much. The photos were captured with this vision in mind. .. Please save Nature and safely hand it over to our next generation. Plant more Banyan trees as they sustain many lives. Thanks.

Dear Madam/ Sir,
I happy to share that today I published my autobiography titled With Folded Hands in English and கூப்பியகரங்களுடன் in Tamil. It is my long time desire to bring it out mainly to thank all those helped me survive and thrive. I am alive because of the good deeds of many souls who helped me without any expectations. Through this book I thank them all as I don't have any other ways to express my thanks to them though it is not enough.
The book was released at Aarvam IAS Academy,Anna Nagar, Chennai. The function was presided by Mr. Irulappan founder trustee of DVM Seva Palam , the book was released by Mr . Senthil Velavan IRS And was received by Ms. Tamilarasi IRS. Mr. Shibikumaran the founder director of Aarvam IAS Academy welcomed the gathering and Mr. Damodaran a retired banker, script writer and fiction writer wished me all success. 21- DECEMBER - 2025 TIMING -10AM – Instagram ID:- @nagendran_c4777

Pristine environments, limited resources, and near-complete isolation are just some of the attractions of Antarctica, often termed the White Desert. Numerous research stations dot the outer regions of the continent where scientists gather data on glaciology, seismology, climate change and the stars.
The French-Italian Concordia research station is one of three year-round stations and is located on Dome C, a plateau some 3200 m above sea level. Secluded from the world in inhospitable conditions, the crew stationed there tackle temperatures that can drop to –80°C in the winter, with a yearly average temperature of –50°C.
The air is extremely dry, so the crew suffer from continuously chapped lips and irritated eyes. The great open landscape alternates between months of night and months of daylight, and colours, smells and sounds are almost non-existent, adding to the sense of loneliness.
In other words, Concordia is perfect.
Here, researchers study the atmosphere, free from pollution, to gain insights into how the world’s population is changing Earth’s climate. Scientists conduct glaciology research by analysing the Antarctic plateau to reveal clues to our past as chemicals are trapped and frozen in the ice.
The thin atmosphere, clear skies and zero light-pollution around Concordia make it an enviable place for observing the Universe. The very southern location of Antarctica also makes it ideal for studying Earth’s magnetic field.
Delving deeper, Concordia is looking at the inside movements of Earth. A seismograph at Concordia measures movement and the research base is part of the international network of seismograph stations.
And then there is the human factor. Despite all the hardships of life in Antarctica, up to 16 people spend around a year at a time living in Concordia in the name of science. In addition to helping conduct other experiments and station maintenance, they are an experiment themselves. And ESA sends a medical doctor to Concordia to study the crew, like this year’s resident Dr Carmen Possnig, imaged above.
The elevation, isolation and sensory deprivation can wreak havoc on crewmembers’ biological clock, making it hard to get a good night’s sleep. Researchers track the effects of this on the human body and mind which adds to data being collected on astronauts on the International Space Station.
Insights are used to help people on Earth like shift workers, bedridden patients and those suffering from sleep disorders, and of course, astronauts serving in low Earth orbit.
Antarctic research at Concordia is helping humans adapt, mentally and physically, to a changing climate, a longer voyage in space, and eventually, life on another planet.
Read more about life at Concordia on the Chronicles from Concordia blog.

...isn't that romantic anymore. I forgot to download this a couple of weeks ago. About a year ago, I took a picture of sky over Los Angeles, wondering the fact that most clouds over that city were man-made:
www.flickr.com/photos/ikkoskinen/334412058/. Oh well, European big cities are not much better, as this picture shows. A good deal of clouds in Paris are from jet engines, and like in LA, they are in various degrees of degradation. Scary. We should travel less.

Presentation by environmental activist Ross Mirkarimi hosted by DERES and the U.S. Embassy Montevideo. DERES is a non-profit business organization that promotes corporate social responsibility (CSR) in Uruguay.
San Francisco District 5 Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi introduced legislation in 2007 that prohibits large supermarkets and drugstores from providing customers with non-biodegradable plastic bags, making San Francisco the first city to regulate such bags. Since then other cities around the country and in Europe have take up similar bans.
